A FB, like FS and FH, does not make the coin the best in that grade, by any stretch of the imagination. Ok, I concede, the designations may add value to certain collectors, as is evident. But a FB dime in MS 65 is not a better example than an MS 69 without the designation. That was the point. To the OP, buy the best struck coin you can afford. But if you chase designations, on often lower graded pieces, you&#039;ll be chasing your tail and never reach your goal.</p><p>Guy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
